Big Ten Tournament: Preview

As many as 10 teams could make this year’s NCAA Tournament out of the 14-team field. While Wisconsin’s the No. 1 seed this year, it’s hard to overlook Michigan State as a tournament favorite. If the Big Ten rolls as deep as projected, that means No. 11 seed Indiana, playing in front of a friendly crowd in Bankers Life Fieldhouse, will probably want to get past its first-round game on Wednesday.
